I have a set of BBS forged alloy monoblock wheels I was thinking of powder coating and since I was concerned about the heat cycle of the powder coat process called BBS.
Concerned because the temperatures used in the tempering process for aluminum alloys is within the range of temperatures used for powder coating.
BBS said they do not powder coat the type of wheel I have because of the temperatures involved and don't recommend doing a powder coat.
Having said that, I have a set of Ray's forged alloys on my Nissan 350Z and powder coated them years ago without problems...
